...the end seems near.
I have been watching the BBC News on and off this evening. I had a vague idea of what has been going on in the City of London over the past three days. I believed what I was being told by the media. It all started with a young man being shot dead in Tottenham by police and justice for his death was being sought after.
This does not seem to be the case. The scenes have worsened, innocent people are now suffering and this has gone too far. This is a catastrophe and I pray to God that it ends sooner rather than later because at this rate Great Britain will no longer exist as Great Britain.
I have now seen that Birmingham, Manchester and Liverpool have begun riots and looting. The state of the streets is quite unbelievable! These are sights that I don't think that I have ever seen in my years of being alive.
The question I am asking, apart from 'is this actually happening?' is... 'Why?' What is the purpose or motive behind this shameful behaviour? We all know that gangs exist. There are gangs of people that steal and make a living out of it – some commit crime because they want to survive and some because they know no different, destroying people's lives seems to be their way of dealing with their own life. But this is too much. This is not what they do. Something has cracked. Something has been broken. And from where I am sitting right now, there doesn't seem to be anyway of fixing it any time soon...
